Reviewing and Overriding Environment Variables

An environment variable definition that appears in the Persistent Environment Variables list overrides any environment variable with the same name that appears in the current debugging environment.

To review the current debugging environment variable definitions, click More to open the Current Environment list, which includes all the environment variables in the debugging environment for your program. You can filter the list using the Filter text box.

To override the value of an environment variable:

1. Select an environment variable in the Current Environment list.

2. Click <<Add to add the environment variable to the Persistent Environment Variables list.

3. Type a new value in the Value text box and click Change.

4. Click OK to establish the change and close the dialog box.

   The environment variable definition in the Persistent Environment Variables list overrides the environment variable definition in the current debugging environment, and is saved with your WorkSet.

To delete a variable and unset its value, you can use the dbx command unset variable.
